Note that we have transitioned to digital CD's - - Compact Discs. Cassettes will no longer be available except we anticipate that in Spring 2011 we will debut Seminar Classics from past years, which will include primarily cassettes from previous years. All CD's will be copied after the Seminar and mailed.

All sessions will be recorded digitally. You may gain more benefit from the CD of a session which you can hear repeatedly than attending the actual workshop. CD's will be made in the 2-4 weeks following the Seminar and will be mailed to you. They will be 75 minutes of the nonstop recording of the workshop.
